Cookie Store
This game was a lot of fun, the way the characters play off of one another. Only issue I saw was that the character arcs were too short, ending just when things got interesting. I wanted more; lots more.

My Dream Sport Dating Simulator
Stop that! It’s silly!
What the hell was this? Sport dating… as in dating sports… After dating pigeons, cats, bunnies, monsters… eh, why not? It could be fun, I thought. It could be wacky, I thought. Well, it was wacky alright, so forcefully wacky that it wasn’t much fun at all. My Dream Sport Dating Simulator is a comedy game, but my god, I don’t think I laughed once.
You’re a sport(!) and you enroll the school for sports to become the next big thing. Then you meet others and hilarity ensues :| That’s it. That’s the story. Except, I didn’t find it very hilarious. Oh, and this is supposedly a dating sim. Well, there’s no dating either. There are 7 characters you can interact with and they will react positively or not to your choices (so like ‘love points’ in a dating sim), but ‘routes’ are extremely short. To get one ending for a character takes 20-30 minutes. The ‘dating’ consists of random jokes, some references and a lot of 4th wall breaking. You also get one mini game per route of varying annoyingness. Actually I loved the 80s training montage and the library one.

Paper Shakespeare: To Date Or Not To Date?
So far I’m having a great time, clever writing, the art is very good, and I’m enjoying the premise. A more substantial review will come later but I wanted to leave a quick endorsement!

Bought this for the dinosaur mod. Worked out so far for me. I wrote a much longer review but it wasn´t sent so I keep it short…
All together:
good
-
Game has really well drawn characters (in my case dinosaur mod)
-
You get to know other characters ask them questions and eventually date them (was dancin´ with my fav. dinosaur a few times)
-
If you are into that dinosaur / creature stuff this is a really good VN for the pictures and the conversations
-
Sound effects and musik are good, and at least at the beginning it feels like someone´s taking you on a hand and helps

Pixel Puzzle Makeout League
I cannot say enough good things about Pixel Puzzle Makeout League.
The game itself has tons of accessibility features for solving picross, that you can adjust at any time. You can make the game horribly challenging if you want to, or you can make it a relaxed experience with plenty of time to think about how to solve the puzzles. The puzzles themselves are varied, well-themed, and really fun! There’s a good mix of easy, medium, and hard puzzles that make it easy to work up to the harder ones.
And oh gosh the writing. At the time of this review I’ve completed two of the character’s routes, and the writing in both is stellar! The jokes are funny, and there’s no sign of the edgy and grimdark humor that has come to plague a lot of otherwise very fun and upbeat titles. The characters are earnest and believable and very kissable!

(update update) This review used to have a photosensitivity warning. The flashing images have been fixed. Thanks to the developers for responding.)
A delightful dating sim (with a bit of a slow start) with lots of funny lines. The pixel puzzles range from easy to challenging. A nice feature is that, as you progress the plot, there continue to be easier challenges mixed with the tougher ones. Two UI flaws: 1. You have to completely finish a “story” (sequence of dialogue and puzzles) before the game saves. If you’re two out of three puzzles done and you have to go to sleep, welp. 2. The cursor is shaped like a heart and the part you point with is actually the center of the heart. I have mis-clicked so many times because of this. Overall, though, I’m very glad I bought and I look forward to buying future games by these authors. Note: the maximum puzzle size is 15x15.

Bistro Days
STORY
You are an aspiring food blogger in the city of Wisteria. One day, a giant raccoon guides you to Bellflower Bistro, where you meet three charming characters that will prove to be your life’s turning point.
What fate awaits you at the bistro? Will you answer to your true calling and become a food blogger that will make your mom proud? Are you able to help your romantic partner achieve their dreams? What choices will you make? Who will you date?
Bistro Days is an over-the-top Slice of Life romantic story where every choice matters, with multiple endings that lead you to a different romantic path.
The Characters
Rose is the manager of the bistro, having worked in similar establishments since she was in high school. Now with years of experience under her belt, she is an expert in all things food industry and has the confidence and leadership skills to boot.
Although friendly, she tends to hold everyone to a high standard. She sometimes comes into conflict with those who disagree with her, but she always forgives and moves on.
Lily only started working at the bistro a few months ago. She joined at a weird time, when the management and work conditions were beginning to reach an all-time low. Having been in the hospitality business for a long time, she tried her best to resolve the issues in the bistro on her own – but ultimately, she leaned on Rose for help when things got out of hand.
Iris is a new hire, joining shortly after Lily. Rose hired her because of her outgoing personality and how skilled Iris is at everything, especially latte art and drawing daily menu boards. As a general team member at the bistro, she balances the front-of-the-house tasks, as well as the social media page and signboards.

Roommates
This is one of those games where I wish you could leave more of a mixed review. It’s not really all good or all bad.
The good things? The game ran fairly longer than other dating simulators I have played, so I was happy with the amount of content. A lot of the humor is really good - especially with how the characters expressions change throughout scenes. This is probably the game’s strongest point, and the most reason I would recommend. I even got emotionally invested during a few nice scenes that showed the group of main characters bonding with each other.

Winter Wolves won me over with an excellent RPG/visual novel mashup “Loren the Amazon Princess”, so I was intrigued what other great games they might have under their belt. “Roommates” as a pure visual novel/dating sim might not have the “saving the world from Great Evil” level of urgency, and a stereotypical US college setting is as generic as it gets, but still, having a great experience with Loren, I was expecting a healhty amount of cheesy fun. And - a few issues aside - I get just that.
“Roommates” is distinctively casual in approach and won’t intimidate you with plethora of options and it’s nice to look at but it feels just too basic, even for what it’s trying to be.

Table Manners: Physics-Based Dating Game
What happens when a surgeon from Surgeon Simulator (SS) decides to go for a date? Well, you get this.
Like SS, you control your own hand to use, grab and release the objects and complete the objectives, while you are dealing with unpredictable game’s physics. Some differences where the time is limited to complete the objectives and you are on a date; impress him/her/them with your ‘handy’ skills by pouring the wine, cooking the marshmallows, mixing the drinks, grabbing the sushi, etc. Impress them (good) enough and you get the rewards; items for your hand and ultimate goal at the end.
